It is finally out! Muntathar Al-Shimary, Doudna Lab, @bradyfcress and I present a gene knockdown tool that works in diverse phages: CRISPRi through antisense RNA Targeting (CRISPRi-ART)! Check out the final paper in @NatureMicrobiol nature.com/articles/s41564-0…

CRISPRi-ART enables functional genomics of diverse bacteriophages using RNA-binding dCas13d

Nature Microbiology - Leveraging RNA-targeting dCas13d enables selective interference with phage protein translation and facilitates measurement of phage gene fitness at a transcriptome-wide scale.

I wrote a review/perspective on the search for principles of microbial ecology across scales, with a focus on (community) metabolism. I hope it can be a useful primer for people interested in microbial communities from a more quantitative perspective. academic.oup.com/icb/advance…

Searching for Principles of Microbial Ecology Across Levels of Biological Organization

Synopsis. Microbial communities play pivotal roles in ecosystems across different scales, from global elemental cycles to household food fermentations. The

On a personal note, Cologne was great fun but I’m also happy to be back in the Netherlands. I am aware academia often requires difficult tradeoffs, and I feel incredibly grateful and lucky to have landed such a dream job and simultaneously live close-by family and many friends.
